Once in a while, I'll go a few blocks to the store without a jacket. We're talking two traffic lights, one turn, and speeds less than 35mph. Other than that, I usually wear jacket AND pants. I can't understand people who wear a jacket but not the pants. I have the Alpinstars Air-Flo pants, and they fit right over my jeans. I figure the mesh, together with jeans, is at least 1/2 as much protection as leathers.
